Join us at The Complex for an evening with the Turner prize-winning conceptual, video and installation artist, Jeremy Deller to celebrate the launch of his Art is Magic book. Art is Magic is artist Jeremy's attempt to tie up the key works of his career alongside the art, pop music, film, politics and history that have inspired his work. Much has been written about Deller over the decades but this is the first time he has pulled together all of his cultural touchstones and reflects on his 30-year career of politically engaged art. Signed copies of Art is Magic are available in advance and on the night.
On the night will have a Q&A with Siobhán Kane (Young Hearts Run Free) and Jeremy discussing his life in art through the prism of Art is Magic. We will preface the talk with a screening of Jeremy's documentary Everybody in The Place: An Incomplete History of Britain
1984–1992 which covered acid house and rave culture, and political turmoil in Britain in the 1980s and early-1990s. Resonant Frequency, a short documentary film by Johnny Savage about community and broadcasting set in Dublin will open up the proceedings.
Afterwards, we kick off the music with a live set from Frog Of Earth. FOE is a music project by Irish multidisciplinary artist/designer Mel Keane. The project draws from folk music, nature, and pseudo philosophy. FOE is presently exploring real and imagined musical histories of Ireland. Finally, in the main room taking over the Deejay controls to bring us home is Roo Honeychild, founder of the renowned party crew Club Comfort. A seamstress of cheeky edits and purveyor of high energy, grit-filled DJ sets, Honeychild has been an eminent force on Ireland's rave circuit for the last eight years.
Room 2 will see an Atomic Radio takeover all night long with F!ONN, Pippa Molony, Pesci Tooth & Reflekta holding court.
